: I Don’t Know Whether I Should Utter It

b.u.t.tface’s naughtiness was really unpredictable!
Sometimes, he would suddenly act wantonly and leave people lost between laughter and tears. But, since he had dared to act naughtily at this moment, Xu Que almost couldn’t stifle his impulse to give b.u.t.tface a beating.
“I could die in a little while, yet you are still in the mood for a joke?”
“Don’t you have even a little bit of civility?”
“Can’t you speak in a civilized and polite way?”
“What do you mean by a verb? What the h*ll are you talking about?”
“Huh? I’m also getting an awful feeling. Did I also suffer this curse?” b.u.t.tface became fl.u.s.tered suddenly.
“That is my murderous aura,” Xu Que replied suddenly.
“F*ck!” b.u.t.tface came back to his senses, and he quickly tucked his tail between his legs and got ready to run away at any moment.
Xu Que really didn’t want to pay attention to b.u.t.tface, and his gaze fell once again upon the plain. He frowned and shook his head. “Let’s forget about this, and get on with our proper business. I really don’t believe that he can take my life with a single sentence.”
“Fine, well said! Xu Que’s father is really amazing.” b.u.t.tface took advantage of the chance to fawn over Xu Que.
BANG!
At this moment, Duan Jiude hit his tortoisesh.e.l.l, and several symbols fell off it. His expression changed drastically, and he said, “F*ck, I have calculated it. It’s really a sign foreboding a great calamity, and that calamity is very dangerous.”
As Duan Jiude spoke, he raised his head to look at Xu Que and forced a smile. He said, “You don’t have much time left. It is going to happen in exactly 49 days.”
As his words echoed out, they all descended into silence.
Bai Cailing looked startled, while Mo Junchen seemed dumbfounded. As for Liu Jingning, worry appeared in her eyes.
Xu Que frowned and let out a breath before he sneered coldly. “So it’s 49 days? Fine, I really want to see who is able to take my life in 49 days.”
After Xu Que spoke, he looked at Bai Cailing and spoke calmly, “Saint Bai, please continue showing us the way.”
Bai Cailing opened her mouth. She wanted to speak, but she refrained from it, and just nodded silently. She continued guiding them.
On the way, Duan Jiude and b.u.t.tface became more well-behaved, and it seemed as if they were pondering over a solution for Xu Que. As for Liu Jingning, she sent a sound transmission to Xu Que, questioning him about the details of this entire affair.
Xu Que didn’t want to keep talking about this, and he just gave a perfunctory reply. After all, he had already recounted the whole sequence of events a while ago, and he didn’t have anything else to add to it.
Moreover, Xu Que had already regained his calm, and he was thinking over this matter rationally. He really didn’t believe that the child could take his life because of a single sentence, as this was a matter which even G.o.ds couldn’t achieve.
Xu Que became full of expectations about what would befall him in 49 days, and it was unknown whether this was due to his great self-confidence or because he was angry now.
Xu Que sneered, as a heroic air emanated from him. His restless feelings were much weakened.
After a short while, they crossed the next road smoothly and without a hitch.
Bai Cailing revealed many strange ways for crossing Formation Spells, and Xu Que found himself forced to nod at her and express his grat.i.tude. As they ventured further into the Mystery Land, they ran into some complex and dangerous Formation Spells, and if Bai Cailing hadn’t been guiding them, they wouldn’t have been able to pa.s.s through these Restrictive Formation Spells for ten days or two weeks, and they would have wasted a lot of their energy.
It was fortunate that this time they made progress smoothly, and Bai Cailing brought them into the Mystery Land’s central region in just one day. This was the sole region where all cultivators could operate and train!
Even though this region was only the Mystery Land’s central region, it was still vast and broad. It could have been divided into more than 100 small areas. Even if Xu Que had traveled at full speed with the Firestorm Wheels, he would still have had to spend a year and a half to make a full detour around this region.
Trying to find the Divine Farmer Clan’s farmland of Chiliad Gold Resurrection Vines in this area was going to be more difficult than finding a needle in a haystack.
But Bai Cailing was quite clever, and she ruled out most areas, as those were all areas frequented by innumerable cultivators. Since people were all bustling around in these areas, the Divine Farmer Clan’s secret farmland surely wasn’t situated there.
Bai Cailing gave Xu Que a jade slip that had a map, and a certain area on the map was marked up. Even though the area seemed quite small, they would have to waste a long time to search for it. But this was still better than having several people who weren’t familiar with the region search it blindly.
Bai Cailing explained everything to Xu Que seriously, “Elder Xu, according to my calculations, this area is the most likely option, and it can be almost a.s.sured that the Divine Farmer Clan’s farmland is situated there. On one hand, this area has many Demonic Beasts and intruding into it is quite dangerous. This was why cultivators wouldn’t train in it. On the other hand, many Illusion Restriction Spells existed in this area, and even though they didn’t possess great might, dealing with them was quite troublesome, and there were even some we couldn’t deal with. This is why you will have to spend some efforts to find the farmland.”
“Thanks a lot.” Xu Que smiled and shook her hands as a thank you.
Bai Cailing was startled by his polite att.i.tude. However, she didn’t think too much about it, and she promptly returned his politeness. She said with a smile, “Elder Xu, you are too polite. This is just a trifling matter that isn’t worth mentioning, and such a little bit of help is nothing in comparison to what you have done for the Jade Lake.”
After she finished speaking, she bowed slightly as a salute. “It’s a pity that the Jade Lake is quite busy currently, and my power is limited. I’m not able to provide you with any great help. If this hadn’t been the case, I would have gone to look for that land with you.”
“It’s all right, you should go back to the Jade Lake, and leave the rest to me.” Xu Que waved his hand at her and spoke with a smile.
Bai Cailing was quite tactful, as she was afraid that Xu Que would misunderstand her attentions and a.s.sume that she wanted to get her share. This was why she used the Jade Lake’s work as an excuse to leave. She didn’t only give Xu Que respect, she also provided herself with a way out. It was satisfactory to both sides, and she could leave smoothly because of it.
Xu Que obviously wouldn’t try to have Bai Cailing stay. After all, she had already helped in every way she could, and she had escorted them here. It was tantamount to bringing them to the gate of the destination,and then leaving them to find a way to cross the gate.
Moreover, they really didn’t need her anymore, and it would restrain their conversations if she stayed. This was why it was better to seize the chance and let her leave.
In the end, Xu Que and his companions saw off Bai Cailing, before they directed their gazes to the area shown on the map.
“Ha, ha, that la.s.sie finally left. Now we can speak at ease.”
At this moment, b.u.t.tface suddenly shouted excitedly and looked at Xu Que. He said, “Lad, as a matter of fact, I have something to say, but I don’t know whether I should utter it.”
“Don’t utter it, thank you.” Xu Que rejected him without giving this matter any consideration.
“F*ck! Why not? Don’t I have freedom of speech?” b.u.t.tface spoke angrily.
“Mr. b.u.t.tface, a loose tongue may cause a lot of trouble. So, it’s better for you to abstain from speaking,” Duan Jiude chuckled bitterly and spoke to warn b.u.t.tface.
b.u.t.tface recalled Xu Que’s previous angry expression, and he restrained himself. He nodded and said, “It’s fine. In any case, it isn’t an important matter. It’s better for us to first find that land and make some great profits.”
“It isn’t important?” Huh, hold on! I really want to hear it,” Duan Jiude spoke hurriedly.
Xu Que also looked at b.u.t.tface and nodded. He asked him to utter it!
Both people clearly knew that this fool couldn’t distinguish was what insignificant from what was important, and if he stated that something was important, then it was usually just a trifling matter. But if he stated that it wasn’t important, then it was probably a significant matter.
“It’s really not important.” b.u.t.tface waved his paw and looked at the surroundings. He said, “I have just suddenly recalled something, and it’s from a long time ago. It’s unknown from which life it was, but I have recalled that I have been here before. The land has changed a lot, and even the ancient city has disappeared. Some tall mountains have crumbled, and some rivers have dried up, while some deserts have turned into a great sea.”
When these words echoed out, Duan Jiude and Xu Que exchanged glances, and they both discerned through each other’s look that they had had the same thought. “Sure enough! It is so.”
Afterward, they both shouted at the same time, “F*ck!”
